==The Abuse of Message Believers by Ministers==


We have been shocked by the number of former message believers that have contacted us and have clearly been abused by their former pastors while in the message.  While that is clearly not the experience in all message churches, it certainly occurs in enough churches to represent a significant problem within the message.  Additionally, message ministers when they become aware of abuse in other churches rarely say anything and avoid criticisms of any other ministers, regardless of how abusive they have become or how questionable their personal conduct.
